Can I get some help with my Flashlight Battery GUI?
My flashlight Battery GUI doesn't work.
01 | player = script.Parent.Parent.Parent |
02 | char = player.Character |
03 | battery = script.Battery -- Starts at 100. |
04 | light = char.Flashlight.Handle.SpotLight |
05 |
06 | function batteryLife() |
07 | if light.Enabled == true then repeat |
08 | wait(1) |
09 | battery.Value = battery.Value - 1 -- Goes down by 1 every second. |
10 | until battery.Value == 0 |
11 | end |
12 | script.Parent["Battery Frame"].%Battery.%Battery.Value = "Battery:".. battery.Value.. "%" |
13 | end |
14 |
15 |
16 | char.Flashlight.Activated:connect(batteryLife) |
No part of this script works.
EDIT: Still doesn't work. Is there anything else that can be added/fixed?

This also looks broken to me.
1 | repeat until battery.Value == 0 |
Repeat is supposed to be used in this way:
1 | repeat |
2 | --do stuff |
3 | until [bool] |

I think you forgot to call the function

This should work.
01 | player = script.Parent.Parent.Parent |
02 | char = player.Character |
03 | battery = script.Battery -- Starts at 100. |
04 | light = char.Flashlight.Handle.SpotLight |
05 |
06 | function batteryLife() |
07 | if light.Enabled == true then |
08 | repeat |
09 | wait(1) |
10 | battery.Value = battery.Value - 1 -- Goes down by 1 every second. |
11 | until battery.Value == 0 |
12 | end |
13 | script.Parent["Battery Frame"].Battery.Battery.Value = "Battery:".. battery.Value .. "%" -- This line caused problems, if the name of whatever you access ACTUALLY has % signs in it, you do it for example like game.Workspace["%battery"].lol Use a format like that |
14 | end |

16 | char.Flashlight.Activated:connect(batteryLife) |
